Here’s how to let them go.
You never know the day your world is going to start crumbling. You wake up, just like any other day, and start going about your business. And then a moment happens. Maybe it’s a phone call, or a knock on the door or a news alert or the sound of brakes or a horn before […]

There are a few things in life most people dread: Public speaking A root canal The “we need to talk” speech For many people another one that’s at the top of the list is thinking about and dealing with their finances.

One year ago, today I sat by my friend’s bedside at the hospice house as she actively started to transition to the other side. Months prior she had asked me to be with her at the end and I promised I would be. At that time, I think she was afraid of transitioning, but we […]

You can be a caregiver and also care for yourself. There’s a look that comes over caregivers that allows us to spot one another – it’s the look of exhaustion. A dullness in our eyes and usually a sallowness in our skin. Being a caregiver is emotionally and physical exhausting. I remember when I first […]

Let’s agree that marriage isn’t easy. It’s a lesson in compromise, trust, patience, and perseverance. I’m not sure if most people really consider their marriage vows – in sickness and in health, for richer or for poorer. My marriage to my second husband tested this to its limits. I met Greg on Match.com and we […]

For the majority of my adult life I have been an entrepreneur. I started my first business at the age of 24 – a public relations boutique in Los Angeles focused on commercial production. I built it into a six-figure business with clients on both coasts. By 28 I had sold it to a multi-national […]

Twenty-three years ago, my first-born child, Connor, died from Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. He was born in April and I’ll always remember how incredibly significant that first Mother’s Day was for me. Little did I know at the time that the next Mother’s Day I would be hiding in my house with a torrent of […]
